Cheap Holidays to Frankfurt
Visitors to Germany do can find much to make them linger in the sprawling city of Frankfurt on the River Main. For tourists Frankfurt does offer some sights, some intriguing restaurants in the Nordend, a variety of artistic and cultural events, and excellent shopping opportunities. Sightseeing opportunities are mostly confined to the historical core of the city, known as the Romerberg, where Charlemagne erected his fort in medieval times. For shopping it is hard to beat the Zeil, Germany’s equivalent to New York’s Fifth Avenue.
With its excellent rail connections and Autobahn system, Frankfurt is the natural hub for travellers wishing to explore the surrounding towns and countryside. It is also the venue for numerous trade fairs, exhibitions and congresses, drawing about 12-million visitors a year to these events.
Business travellers will find Frankfurt is home to Germanys central bank, the Bundesbank and Europe's most important stock exchange, which has been trading since 1585.
